Résumé

Electromyostimulation has been used for several decades by athletes or physiotherapists in order to create a muscular reinforcement. However, the efficiency of electromyostimulation is limited by muscular fatigue and by induced pain. Currently, the systems of electromyostimulation do not adapt the stimulation parameters automatically by taking into account physiological parameters such as muscular fatigue. To adapt the stimulation parameters to muscular responses and in order to optimize the rehabilitation sessions, a control of force using an indicator of muscular fatigue could be used. In this paper, we propose two ways to control the force by using a physiological model which includes the effects of muscular fatigue.
